Using the Multi-Function Digital Viewer
Copying Files to and from a Computer
The supplied USB cable enables you to use the Digital Viewer as a compact
flash memory card reader so that you can copy files to and from a computer.
To copy files, connect the Digital Viewer to a computer as described in
Connecting to a Computer on page 9.
Two “Removable Disk” icons will automatically appear in Windows
Explorer as shown. Copy files to and from the Digital Viewer as you normally would.
NOTE:
• When you use the Digital Viewer as a card reader, you will
only be able to copy files to and from flash memory cards
(CF, SD, MMC and MS), not the internal memory or external USB devices.
• For SD cards, setting the write protect will have no effect
when using it with the Digital Viewer. In other words, you
can still copy and delete files, regardless of whether the
write protect is set or not.
